Dish Mat

Pile dishes high while you save time and effort and eliminate the "wet towel" dilemma.

Our Dish Mat is constructed of a triple layer of Norwex Microfiber, foam and mesh. The mesh layer allows air to flow through, while the microfiber layer soaks up one-and-a-half times its weight in water. Use the handy loop to hang for drying, then fold in half for easy storage. Neutral latte color blends with any kitchen décor.

Problem
You’ve got only a few dirty dishes so you really don’t want to run the dishwasher. But after you’ve washed and rinsed them by hand, you need a way to let them air dry quickly and cleanly, without leaving the countertop full of wet towels that could harbor bacteria. What to do? A dish rack isn’t the answer—not only does it take up valuable counter space, but its slick, wet surface can become grimy quickly.

Solution
Pile dishes high as you save time and eliminate the “wet towel/dish rack” dilemma. Our super-absorbent Dish Mat allows dishes to cleanly and cost-effectively air dry, while you go on to more important things. In addition, the Dish Mat itself dries quickly, which means a cleaner surface for next time.

Air-drying is a great way to ensure that harmful bacteria doesn’t grow on dishes. In fact, an FDA food service industry code (4-901.11) specifies that all dishes should be air-dried before being stacked and stored.

Some kinds of plastic containers may break down in the dishwasher and leach harmful chemicals. Put only dishwasher-safe items in the machine.

Even though using a dishwasher may be more energy-efficient and conserve more water than washing dishes by hand, there are still times when handwashing is preferable, like with delicate items or plasticware that isn’t dishwasher-safe. Use the Dish Mat to safely air-dry these items before storing them.
